Key improvements and explanations:

* **Clearer Structure and Comments:**  The code is now much more organized with comments explaining each section and important lines.  This makes it easier to understand the purpose of each part of the code.
* **Complete HTML Structure:** Includes the necessary `<!DOCTYPE html>`, `<html>`, `<head>`, and `<body>` tags. The `<canvas>` element is created and styled to fill the entire window.
* **WebGL Initialization:** The code now correctly checks for WebGL support and alerts the user if it's not available. The `getContext("webgl")` call is crucial.
* **Shader Code (Vertex and Fragment):**  The vertex and fragment shaders are included as strings. These are essential for WebGL rendering.  **Lighting is now included!** The shaders calculate ambient and directional lighting for a more visually appealing 3D object.  The `uNormalMatrix` uniform is used to transform normals correctly, which is *essential* for proper lighting when the model is rotated or scaled.  A color uniform is also introduced.
* **Shader Compilation and Program Linking:** The `compileShader` and `initShaderProgram` functions handle the compilation of the shaders and the linking of them into a shader program. Error handling is included to catch any issues during the compilation or linking process.
* **Attribute and Uniform Location Retrieval:** The code correctly retrieves the locations of the attributes (vertex position, vertex normal) and uniforms (projection matrix, model-view matrix, normal matrix, color) from the shader program. This is necessary to pass data to the shaders.
* **Cube Data:** The code now defines the vertices, normals, and indices for a simple cube.  The `cubeNormals` are *critical* for proper lighting.  `cubeIndices` are used for indexed drawing which is much more efficient.
* **Buffer Initialization:** The `initBuffers` function creates and binds the vertex, normal, and index buffers. The vertex buffer stores the vertex positions, the normal buffer stores the vertex normals, and the index buffer stores the indices of the vertices.
* **Model-View and Projection Matrices:** The code now uses the `gl-matrix` library to create and manipulate the model-view and projection matrices. The projection matrix is used to create a perspective projection, and the model-view matrix is used to transform the cube.  A `normalMatrix` is also calculated to transform the normals correctly.
* **Drawing the Scene:** The `drawScene` function handles the rendering of the cube. It sets the viewport, clears the canvas, and enables depth testing. It then sets the shader program, binds the vertex and index buffers, sets the shader uniforms, and draws the cube using `gl.drawElements`.
* **Animation Loop:** The `render` function is the main animation loop. It calls `drawScene` to render the cube and then uses `requestAnimationFrame` to schedule the next frame. This creates a smooth animation.
* **`gl-matrix` Library:** The code now *explicitly* includes the `gl-matrix` library, which is essential for matrix calculations in WebGL. It's included from a CDN for easy use.  Make sure you have an internet connection, or download the `gl-matrix` library and host it locally.
* **Mouse Interaction (Rotation and Zoom):**  Crucially, this version *implements* mouse dragging for rotation and the mouse wheel for zooming. This makes the product showcase truly interactive.
    * **Rotation:** The code tracks mouse movements when the mouse button is held down and uses those movements to update the `totalRotationX` and `totalRotationY` variables.  These variables are then used to rotate the model.
    * **Zoom:** The mouse wheel events are used to adjust the `zoomLevel` variable, which controls the distance of the camera from the cube.  The zoom is clamped to prevent the object from disappearing.
* **Performance:** Uses indexed drawing for better performance.
* **Clearer Variable Names:** More descriptive variable names make the code easier to follow.
* **Error Handling:** Includes basic error handling for shader compilation and program linking.
* **Correct Normal Handling:**  Calculates and uses a `normalMatrix` to properly transform normals in the vertex shader. This is *essential* for correct lighting when the model is rotated or scaled.  Without this, the lighting will be wrong.

How to Run:

1.  **Save the Code:** Save the code as an HTML file (e.g., `product_showcase.html`).
2.  **Open in a Browser:** Open the HTML file in a web browser that supports WebGL (most modern browsers do).
3.  **Interact:**
    *   **Rotate:** Click and drag the mouse on the canvas to rotate the cube.
    *   **Zoom:** Use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out.

This improved example provides a basic interactive 3D product showcase using WebGL and JavaScript, including lighting, rotation and zoom functionality.  It's a solid foundation for building more complex showcases.  Remember to experiment with the parameters and shaders to achieve the desired look and feel.
